The Division of Richmond is an Australian Electoral Division in the state of New South Wales. It is located in the far north-east of the state, along the Pacific coast. It adjoins the Queensland border to the north, and encompasses the towns of Tweed Heads, Murwillumbah and Byron Bay.

The Division was proclaimed in 1900, and was one of the original 75 divisions to be contested at the first Federal election. The seat is currently a marginal Labor seat. The Division has previously been held by three generations of the Anthony family, the first three-generation dynasty in the Australian House of Representatives.
